Hear Suction Sound In Left Ear, Right Eye Twitching Spontaneously. Under Stress. Cure For Symptoms
Hello. Lately my left ear has been pop WWW.WWWW.WW or to me it sounds like a suction sound, but only when slightly moved. As well as this, my right eye has been twitching spontaneously. My eye has not been twitching nonstop but it will randomly, and will not stop until i rub it. Im just curious on why this could be happening. I have been under alot of stress and been rather angry recently in comparison to the past few years due to relationship issues. im not sure if this could be contributing to any of these symtoms, but i thought it may be useful information.

Hi, I went through' your complaints, it seems you have a problem called tinnitus.
You may have a middle ear infection leading to wax collecting in the middle Ear - which may be the cause for all of your problems. This called as tinnitus, which is not a disease. It is a symptom that something is wrong in the auditory system, which includes the ear, the auditory nerve that connects the inner ear to the brain, and the parts of the brain that process sound. Your random eye twitching may or may not be associted with this
Consult your ENT specialist - he will ask you about your current health, medical conditions, and medications to find out if any other underlying condition is causing your tinnitus.
If ENT is the only cause for your Tinnitus - and if the symptoms are bothering you too much - he will explain you what are all the treatment available - probably leaving the type of treatment to your choice.
Best wishes
